What don't you understand? The government wants to remove the Māori specific aspects of child welfare. Here's the Hansard record, https://www.parliament.nz/en/pb/hansard-debates/rhr/document/HansS_20240501_051540000/kapa-kingi-mariameno The theory of the ...
he should see his personal one fairly quickly.
that goes to Lprent. Is it urgent? I can email him and ask him to check them.
I think it's that last sentence that's at issue. The Greens have long demonstrated how change can be achieved without being in government. If TPM spend the next 6 years establishing their policies in the public eye as well as growing their vote, that makes...
did you listen to her speech? I watched the short version in Chris' link. You may not agree with her perspective, but the word exterminate used in context was coherent and understandable. She is saying that government policy will remove Māori ability to ...
yes. Why?
Growing the party's vote and sitting on teh cross benches free to criticises government policy whoever is in government is not necessarily a bad thing, and might be preferable to being in a centre left Hipkins led government. Assuming Labour doesn't need ...

thanks Anne.
that link is now broken. Looks like they took it down.
right wing people are welcome to comment in TS so long as they play by the rules like everyone else. Having right wing and centrist people stops use from becoming an echo chamber. It's not these days, this has always been true.
If Shaw can imagine the Greens going with National, carving out specific policy wins just as they did with Labour, then we get a proper realignment of our politics that threatens NZF, ACT, TPM, and Labour at once. That's not how it works though. The ...
Because one of the wordpress developers is an American? I assume wordpress uses US English as the default because that's where most of it's customers have been. When it was pointed out to Lynn, he fixed it.
I think there is the same requirement on cyclists to ride to the conditions be considerate road users as there are on other road users. Yes there is. Doesn't matter if you are cycling or driving or towing or whatever. In this case, I was pointing out that...
weird, it shows behavior as wrong for me.
I've been saying to international GCFs online for while now, where is the feminism in NZ? I know who the GCFs are, but where are all the other feminist organisations? I literally don't even know any more. I guess this answers part of that question.
fucking hell. I'm only a 1/3 of the way through the article and then I detoured to look at Project Gender. I despair. Liberal feminism, neoliberalism, no class analysis, probably misapplication of intersectionality, minimising 2nd wave feminism. It's ...
I think you will find that if you are on a windy road, or any situation where you cannot see in time to stop, the onus is on the person driving to slow down. You can drive at any speed under or equal to the limit, provided: your speed is safe for the road ...
it's a no win situation for the Greens. The problem I have is they've said they're not disputing the florist's story and we can't tell if that's because of their internal process or because what JAG did was really that bad (the florist's story reads to me ...
are duck numbers a problem?
Many children with dyslexia find it difficult to learn how letters and sounds correspond to each other and may not be able to recall the right letters to be able to spell the sounds in words. The complexity of the English language means that learners also...
as far as I can see both the left and the right have hypocrites on this. Genter was wrong in what she did, she knows she was and she has apologised in parliament. I don't know if she has apologised to Doocey. The lefties implying it's no big deal are doing...
please supply a link for that quote.
go on then, give us all a wee lecture about male violence against women.
not really. Mitigation is specifically the acts of decarbonisation. Adaptation technically doesn't involve that, but rather taking actions to deal with the effects of CC. The best solutions do both, and once we get there mitigation and adaptation are two ...
he ended up pleading guilty to fighting not assault, so I assume there was a bit of aggro on both sides.
anything in NZ?
because he could see how this was going to play out for Genter and the Greens?
As for serious, there have been incidents of brawls in other parliaments, threats of violence and scuffles in close proximity to the chamber by MP's in our own. Can you please give more information on this?
reread it. I didn't say that.
please fix your username.
